MX The MX class enables querying of mail exchange (MX) records from a Domain Name Server (DNS). Thus, it will find out the names of the mail servers accepting email for a given email address or domain.
NetClock The NetClock class provides the current time in Greenwich Mean Time from an Internet Time Server.
NetCode The NetCode class can be used to encode or decode files or strings using a variety of popular encoding formats, such as Base64, UUencode, and URL. UUEncode , MIME's Base64 Quoted-Printable , and URL encoding formats, as well as secure hash functions such as MD5 and SHA1, are currently supported.

SMTP The SMTP Class is used to send internet mail using the SMTP protocol (the internet mail standard).
SOAP The SOAP Class is a generic SOAP client supporting SOAP 1.1 that is used to communicate with SOAP servers.
SysLog The Syslog class is used to send and receive network system log packets.
TCPClient The TCPClient Class is a generic Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) stream client based on an asynchronous, event-driven architecture.
TCPServer The TCPServer Class is a generic Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) server class based on an asynchronous, event-driven architecture. It is designed to balance the load between connections for a fast, powerful server.
Telnet The Telnet Class is used to communicate with servers implementing the TELNET protocol.
TFTPClient The TFTPClient class is used to exchange files with TFTP servers via the TFTP protocol defined in RFC 783.
TFTPServer The TFTP Server Class is used to create a TFTP Server.
UDP The User Datagram Protocol (UDP) class is used to facilitate UDP (datagram) communications. It can act both as a client and a server and communicate with any number of hosts simultaneously, as well as generate and receive broadcast packets.
WebDAV The WebDAV Class implements an easy-to-use interface to the Web Distributed Authoring and Versioning (WebDAV) protocol.
WebForm The WebForm Class is used to POST data to interactive web pages or scripts (e.g., CGI, ASP), similar to what HTML forms do.
